Rep Dasuki Says He’ll Not Retain Parliament Seat In 2027 To Give Others Chance
Rep Abdulsamad Dasuki, who represents Kebbe/Tambuwal Federal Constituency, Sokoto State in the House of Representatives, has announced his decision not to show interest in retaining his parliament seat in 2027 noting that he had to do this to give other people in his constituency especially the young people, the opportunity to prove themselves.
Team@orientactualmags.com learned that Rep Dasuki who announced his decision not to seek re-election in a statement he issued on Sunday cited the need to strengthen Nigeria’s democracy by creating space for younger voices and fresh ideas in governance.
‘The Nigeria we yearn for is only possible through sacrifice.
After due consultation with my team, our leader, my family, and my conscience,
I have decided not to seek re-election to the House of Representatives in 2027.
This is not born out of fatigue or disillusionment, but a higher calling — a decision rooted in belief, in hope, and in a future we all desire to see.
I am still a youth by all standards, but I have crossed the 40-year threshold we proposed.
If we are to give meaning to our words, we must be willing to pay a heavy price.
This, my dear constituents, is that sacrifice. And so I choose to make space for the vision we proclaimed.
To my constituents, you gave me your trust, and I carried it like a badge of honour.
To our youth, I say: no more waiting, no more excuses, no more silence.
Take your place. Stand tall. Lead with courage, integrity, and vision.
As I step aside, I wish to bequeath a new legacy in Nigeria’s political history — one that showcases leaders who know when to exit, paving the way for a fresher generation’ Rep Dasuki submitted.
The federal lawmaker, who was born on June 30, 1978, had at different times served as Commissioner for Finance, Sokoto State, a member of the state House of Assembly and the House of Representatives.
